"Ah! How dare you hit me!"
Guan Guiling retorted fiercely, "I hit you because you deserved it!"
Madame Fan Cai-shi, who had never been treated so disrespectfully, screamed, "I'll kill you, you little wretch! Old man, help me!"
The room quickly descended into chaos as punches and shouts flew.
Several onlookers who couldn't stand by and watch anymore stepped in to help, but even so, Guan Guiling was injured. She was now even more disheveled than before. She'd been scratched across the neck, and it was only by dodging that she hadn't been hit in the face.
She hadn't expected the old lady to be so ferocious. Not only was Madame Fan Cai-shi fierce, but Old Fan also joined in.
However, the younger generations of the Fan family didn't step forward. Instead, they took a few steps back.
Though they were uneducated, they could see that the situation wasn't looking good.
Such behavior might be acceptable in their village, but this was Beijing!
They were hesitant.
